First I have to say, I have realized I'm scared of this boy now and refuse to reach into his cage to get him out... So I took Axe and Popper out of their cage and patiently waited for Throttle to decide to come out of his cage - with a little coaxing. So I have them on the couch - which didn't go to bad - Throttle was a puff ball, but only had one incident with Axe and it wasn't bad. I must mention that Popper and Axe seemed on edge with each other too. So anyway, Throttle and Axe would circle each other a few times and when it looked like the behavior was going to escalate I could make a quiet clapping noise - nothing startling and they would break their concentration on each other. This is what I don't understand, after awhile Throttle just kept trying to get under the Popper or Axe, mostly Axe like he was either 1) try to just lay under them to be submissive or 2) was trying to get them to groom him. He kept doing this time after time. Either way he was being a good boy. He's been back in the big cage for about 30 minutes now and I haven't heard any commotion or noises.. Axe and Popper are definitely on the snip snip list next. Popper has a nice long scab on his back that wasn't there a couple days ago so it cannot be from Throttle.
